Palm oil vs monoculture and other animal agricultre

"Will this be causing the same hoo-hah as palm oil? I doubt it since it doesn't seem that orangutans will be affected. Speciesism is alive and well folks."

The mining used for electronics also involves human exploitation and animal exploitation. The monocultures used in the production of most of our food is an ecological disaster. The transports of foods and other products all around the world is also an ecological disaster. So if we want to avoid as much harm as possible, and to make an ethical enviroment friendly choice, we should try to buy locally produced food and other products that aren't produced in monocultures.
Yes, it is clearly speciesist.

More about electronics:

This is a very important video clip about the slave work involved in the electronics that we use:

"We must rid our lives of unnecessary violence. Animal products and all other animal use are out, and there is more we can do...such as only buying what we need, buying second hand whenever possible, and buying non-slave made whenever possible." Quote Sarah

So if you are contemplating just buying or using some electronical product, or other product (most products, including most clothes involve slavery work somewhere in the product chain), and many food items (a big amount of the cocoa and sugar produced in the world is produced by slaves - see the documentary 'The Dark Side of Chocolate') just for entertainment or pleasure, please ask yourself if this can be justified given the slavery, death and violence involved in making the product.

Violence and wars, how our oppression towards animals leads to war between people

It is all connected. We sow violence towards the animals and reap violence between humans and fellow humans.
I recommend this article: http://www.onegreenplanet.org/animalsandnature/what-are-the-roots-of-freedom-and-slavery/

“From the very beginning of animal agriculture ten thousand years ago, when our forebears first enslaved wild sheep and goats for meat, milk, and products, it has brought out the worst in us. It was a small and inevitable step from enslaving animals to then enslaving the fellow humans who were defeated in the first wars our planet ever saw, driven by, as Gavyaa, the first word for war we know of, indicates. It means “the desire for more cattle.””

I believe in non-violence. The solution is never wars.
"Mahavir taught that “all breathing, existing, living, sentient creatures should not be slain, nor treated with violence, nor abused, nor tormented, nor driven away.” This is the only moral or spiritual principle that we need to know. If we live by this principle, we will be at peace with ourselves and the world will be at peace. Whatever our religious tradition may be, let us celebrate Mahavir Jayanti 2011 by recommitting ourselves to a simple but profound idea that all may embrace: Ahimsa."
